Hi - Samonsite produced a bunch of Basic Sets in the early 1970s that were sold via catalog through retailers like Sears and JCPenney. These sets were simply in brown cardboard boxes vs more traditional marketing packaging. I don't see these in the Bricklink catalog. Can they be added? I'm specifically interested in seeing the "LEGO Samsonite 846 Piece Basic Set" added as I have one in an open box but sealed original plastic bags I'd like to list. Here is a link to Brick Economy with the specific set I'm interested in but you'll see a bunch of similar Samsonite era sets that I don't see on Bricklink... https://www.brickeconomy.com/set/SID00125040-1/lego-samsonite-846-piece-basic-set Apologies if this is in the Bricklink catalog already and I've just missed it. In that case, if someone could point me in the right direction that would be helpful! Thanks!

[...] Can you add some images of your set to this post, so we have an idea which set you are talking about? Thanks, Diana (8 months ago, Oct 5, 2023, to Catalog Requests)
